75th Omloop Het Nieuwsblad: February 29, 2020

[Flamin]

You can't even say for sure that Gilbert will finish Vlaanderen and P-R in top-10, and that's the wonderful thing about cycling, especially the classics.

You're really missing the point here

 

[Flamin]

Now Jumbo chasing their (co-)leader, what are they doing

 

[RedheadDane]

Well, my point is that there are nobody for whom we could with completely certainty say "He'll finish in the top-10!", and wouldn't be boring if there was?

Bluffing?

 

[Flamin]

Well, my point is that there are nobody for whom we could with completely certainty say "He'll finish in the top-10!", and wouldn't be boring if there was?

And obviously that is true, but again, that wasn't the point...

 

[Wvv]

If only the gap was like 45 seconds less given away

 

[Cance > TheRest]

Will finish of course. If you had to put down 10 names for both races, you'd have those 5 in there?

I would definitely have 2 or 3 of them in. But it is not like there is a cut-off point after the 10 biggest favourites, where the quality drops significantly.

I imagine TIZ

 

[Knutsen]

Thanks!

 

[Logic-is-your-friend]

Teunissen gone.

 

[Logic-is-your-friend]

Stuyven en Lampaert... with Kragh?

 

[rick james]

BANG, front group in pieces

 

[Cance > TheRest]

Trentin and Teunissen gapped

 

[Cance > TheRest]

Maybe Kragh will finally have an injury / sickness free spring season

 

[luckyboy]

Kragh and Frison the only guys who stayed on the cobbles all the way up. Commissaires will be busy I guess!

 

[postmanhat]

Will be pleased for Stuyven if he can take it. But that's about the only good thing I can say about this race

 

[Wvv]

Well bye Trentin. GVA still CCC's best card for the big classics. But no surprise there, of course.

Wondering if Kragh can do something against the Belgian duo. Stuyven fastest in a sprint, on paper.

 

[rick james]

lets stand in the trees with a flare, what possibly could go wrong

 

[Logic-is-your-friend]

Trentin roughly 15s behind.

 

[SafeBet]

Trentin roughly 15s behind.

He still has a shot if they start playing games.

 

[Logic-is-your-friend]

He still has a shot if they start playing games.

Kragh already started.

 

[Flamin]

Big tailwind, those 3 in front won't slow down.

 

[Cance > TheRest]

Weird that they have not distanced Trentin after Bosberg.
